LPAR manager modifies the allocation rate from the shared LPAR definition
when it meets the following condition:
If the allocation rate for the calculation per logical processor is less than 1
%, the service rate is compensated so that the time in which a single
logical processor uses the physical processor becomes 1% (10
milliseconds) of the unit processor time (1 second).
If the number of logical processors allocated to a single LPAR does not
satisfy the assigned allocation rate, the allocation rate is compensated to
the one that is based on the number of logical processors.

Idle Detection

A shared mode LPAR, which enabling its idle detection and not using so much
CPU compared to the allocated rate, can give its processor time to another
shared mode LPAR requiring it. The busy shared mode LPAR that takes over
the processor time can use more processor-time than the allocation rate. As a
result, the system can use CPUs time more efficiently.
